What were your favorite gear additions in 2024?

Had an epiphany this year.

Power cables and power conditioners can make a much bigger improvement in SQ than components, even in relatively modest systems.

Upgraded to a Nordost QBase Reference power conditioner, which cost more than any of my components and more than my speakers, and my SQ rivals that of $750k systems I have heard.

1. WE300B tubes for my Radu Tarta 300B amp

2. Soulnote A2 integrated amplifier, wow this was a ride.

3. magnariser aero stands for my LRS+

Canton Reference 7K speakers. Took probably 250 hours + but have just blossomed into what may be the best pair of speakers I’ve ever owned.  

It was a great year…found my end game ….

Pass Labs XP-12 preamp

First Watt Sit-4 amp..(the best amp)

Denafrips Venus 12th anniversary dac

Magna Hifi Mano ultra mkIII with separate farad power supply streamer from the Netherlands..a raspberry pi design with Ropieee xl software…really sweet
